Wild Rice is the United States only Native Grain. Minnestalgia Foods developed Coarse Ground Wild Rice or Polenta (in Latin this means Crushed Grain) in February of 2011. Because wild rice takes so long to cook, people were bypassing this nutritious choice for faster less healthy foods for mere convenience. Our Wild Rice Polenta cooks in 3 1/2 minutes for a Hot Cereal, adding salt, fruit, nuts, sugars and other items before cooking, or 5 minutes for a Side Dish that can be served like mashed potatoes, polenta, couscous or quinoa. Add salt, spices, mushrooms, meat, vegetables and bouillon before cooking, add cheese after. 1 serving of Wild Rice Polenta has 1/2 your daily whole grain needs, so add to hamburgers, meatballs, meatloaf, spaghetti, chili, soups, stews and casseroles to add nutrients and flavor, maintain moisture, and decrease fat content. Wild Rice is naturally gluten, sodium, fat and cholesterol free and is high in zinc, protein, phosphorus and trace minerals. Great for a Vegan diet. Comes with 4 of our favorite recipes.
